Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an antisera capable of reacting with the flagellae of substantially all Salmonella serotypes and the use of this antisera preparation in practical immunoassay systems for the rapid and specific detection of salmonellae in specimens.
  • the present invention further relates to a method for immobilization of bacteria on a titanous hydroxyoxide (hereinafter referred to as titanous hydroxide) solid phase.
  • the Kauffmann- hite schema classifies Salmonella serotypes on the basis of the serological properties of their 0 and H antigens.
  • This approach has been very successful as a classification principle, and has resulted, so far, in the recognition of more than 1800 Salmonella serotypes and bioserotypes.
  • This immunological diversity has complicated the process of salmonellae detection using immunoassays.
  • the use of 0 antigens as a basis for the specific detection of salmonellae by immunoassay is not possible because of the existence of close antigenic relationships of 0 identity between Salmonella, Arizona, Escherichia, Citrobacter, and the yeast, Candida.
  • Immunoassays based upon the use of either radioactive isotopes or enzymes as labels such as radioimmunometric assays and enzyme immunometric assays, are characteristically highly specific and sensitive and have consequently been used extensively.
  • solid-phase immunoassays have increased because of the simplicity of its separation technique.
  • other substances for the immobilization of antibodies and antigens have been introduced such as commercial isothiocyanate-substituted plastic discs, polystyrene balls, nylon, activated thiol-Sepharose and microparticulate cellulose.
  • the immobilization of whole microbial cells on solid supports is used commercially to exploit their enzymatic activity for the production or degradation of substances.
  • Techniques for immobilizing microbial cells include (i) entrapment in alginate gels, polyacrylamide gels, collagen membranes, metal hydroxide precipitates, agar pellets and liquid membranes, (ii) absorption onto chromatographic separation or ion exchange materials, (iii) selective binding to plant lectins and (iv) covalent binding of whole cells to a support, using bifunctional reagents, e.g. carbodiimide.

  • the first aspect of the present invention consists in an antisera preparation capable of reacting with substantially all Salmonella serotypes in which said preparation comprises a mixture of individual antisera raised against the flagellae of at least eight of the Salmonella serotypes selected from the group comprising Salmonella oranienburg.

  • the flagella are isolated by culturing the bacteria in a defined medium, subjecting the bacteria to a pH of less than 3, and preferably 2 or less, for a time period of no more than 1 hour, and preferably from 20 to 40 minutes, removing the bacterial cells, and recovering the depolymerized flagellae.
  • the individual antisera components of the antisera preparation are produced by immunization of suitable antibody producing animals with flagellin emulsions in an adjuvant by multiple intrader al injection.
  • the second aspect of the present invention consists in a method for the immobilisation of bacteria on a solid phase comprising shaking or agitating a culture of bacteria with titanous hydroxide.
  • the titanous hydroxide was prepared by neutralization of a diluted solution of titanous chloride with an ammonia solution and then washing the suspension with saline to remove ammonium ions.
  • the immobilization of microorganisms with titanous hydroxide is a simple, one step method, involving shaking for approximately 10 min.
  • the degree of immobilization of microorganisms is usually improved by increasing the duration and/or the intensity of agitation, because of increasing the probability of contact between the cells and the titanous hydroxide particles. Nevertheless, a duration of only 10 min was quite sufficient for almost complete immobilization. It is also possible that agitating too violently or for too long a time can cause dissociation of immobilized mircoorganisms. This, however, did not occur with titanous hydroxide in this investigation, indicating a high degree of stability.
  • the third aspect of the present invention consists in a method for the detection of Salmonella serotypes in a specimen comprising immobilizing the bacteria in the specimen on a solid phase, adding a quenching agent to mask unutilized binding sites on the solid phase, adding a Salmonella H antisera preparation according to the first aspect of the invention, and detecting the presence of bound antibodies.

Abstract

Préparation d'antisérum pouvant réagir avec virtuellement tous les sérotypes de Salmonella. Cette préparation comprend un mélange d'antisérums individuels développés contre les flagelles d'au moins huit sérotypes, et de préférence tous, dans un groupe de dix sérotypes sélectionnés de Salmonella. Cette préparation d'antisérums peut être utilisée dans des systèmes immunoanalytiques pratiques pour la détection rapide et spécifique de salmonella dans des échantillons. Un procédé d'immobilisation de bactéries sur une phase solide a été développé également. Ce procédé consiste à utiliser de l'hydroxyde de titane en tant que phase solide et à secouer ou agiter une culture de bactéries avec de l'hydroxyde de titane.
